I pasted the sequences of human and chimps into Transeq and this is what I got:

>exo18_MYH16_human_1
EQLNKLMTTLHSRTPFCPLYYPQ*V*AIG

>exo18_MYH16_ximpanze_1
EQLNKLMTTLHSTAPHFVRCIIPNEFKQSX

I know that the * signifies gaps. I need help with this question, as I am not sure what it means/how to answer it? Thanks!

Speculate with the functionality of the orthologs in humans taking into account that the gene under study has 42 exons.
